Overview

About 8 Skyline Plaza

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

8 Skyline Plaza is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Basingstoke (RG21 7BL). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 706 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 16 years, with the last transfer in November 2010. At 66 m² the property is well over the postcode median (48 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Across 2008–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at 32.2% per year.
